LAS VEGAS (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden called for quick passage of the immigration reform measure before Congress.

He told a Las Vegas audience Thursday night that the country was in for the “fight of its life” and that the future of America could be decided between now and the Fourth of July, when Congress goes into recess.

The Democrat told a predominantly Latino crowd of 1,100 gathered for the national conference for the League of United Latin American Citizens that now is the time for a “fair, and firm and unfettered path for 11 million people” to become U.S. citizens.
